THE APPRENTICE is a 2024 biographical historical drama film directed by Ali Abbasi and written by Gabriel Sherman. The film had its world premiere at the 77th Cannes Film Festival on May 20, 2024, and is scheduled for an October 11 release in the United States.
A young Donald Trump (Sebastian Stan), eager to make his name as a hungry second son of a wealthy family in 1970s New York, comes under the spell of Roy Cohn (Jeremy Strong), the cutthroat attorney who would help create the Donald Trump we know today. Cohn sees in Trump the perfect protégé—someone with raw ambition, a hunger for success, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to win.
The cast includes Sebastian Stan, Jeremy Strong, Maria Bakalova, Martin Donovan, Charlie Carrick, Mark Rendall, and Joe Pingue.
THE APPRENTICE is set to debut in theaters October 11th, courtesy of Briarcliff Entertainment. Watch the official trailer below.
